Invisible Visits: Black Middle-Class Women in the American Healthcare System - Hardcover
by Tina K. Sacks (Author)
Invisible Visits analyzes why Black middle-class women continue to face inequities in securing fair, equitable, and high-quality healthcare. Unlike other works on health disparities, it integrates social science, public health, and the humanities to better understand why Black women do not receive a proper standard of care at the doctor.
